Description
Thank you for choosing to join this course.As a freelance network engineer, I've noticed the growing popularity of pfSense, and it's clear why-its intuitive design makes it both accessible and efficient. By the end of this course, you'll see for yourself how versatile and user-friendly pfSense can be.In creating this course, my goal was to focus on the most widely-used protocols and technologies in practical, real-world scenarios. Every topic covered here is based on requests and requirements I've encountered with my clients.Upon completing this course, you will gain the following skills:Become familiar with pfSense services and featuresSet up a pfSense system from scratchUnderstand and configure various interface types and their applicationsImplement firewall rules effectivelyGrasp the different types of NAT and their optimal use casesConfigure VPN solutions like IPSec, OpenVPN, and WireGuardUnderstand and configure Multi-WAN for enhanced redundancyPrioritize network traffic with traffic shaping and manage bandwidth using traffic limitersComprehend high availability requirements and setupConfigure an IDS/IPS firewall for added securityBlock ads and malicious sites to secure your networkAdditionally, we'll explore advanced routing with an extra topology that includes OSPF/BGP implementation using FRR.Throughout the course, we'll use a single evolving network topology to demonstrate how these technologies integrate. Each lesson builds on the previous one, allowing you to apply new knowledge progressively as the network configuration becomes more intricate.To maximize your learning experience, I encourage you to follow along with the configurations. Hands-on practice is invaluable for deepening your understanding.Please note, this course focuses on practical configuration steps and usage of pfSense rather than the theoretical underpinnings of each technology. For detailed information on setting up GNS3 or other installation methods, please refer to my additional course covering these topics.I look forward to guiding you through this journey with pfSense and helping you develop a robust skill set for your professional toolkit.
